The CIRCLE 2022 edition is slowly coming to a close, and what a journey it's been!
After two intense modules in Serbia and Croatia, for the third and final module, the CIRCLE participants are heading to Italy, where they will participate in the When East Meets West Coproduction Market (Trieste). From the 22nd to the 25h of January, our ten participants will gather in order to present their projects to potential partners and decision-makers.
